Good doors and windows have a good glass, LOW-E glass and coated glass are generally used in buildings, office glass curtain walls, belonging to special custom glass, home decoration doors and windows, broken bridge aluminum sealed balconies, terrace sun rooms, glass rooms, are inseparable from glass, so where do you need to use this kind of glass at home? What is the difference between these two types of glass, and which one works better to use? Let me give you a brief introduction.
We ordinary non-professionals, only from the appearance of the two glasses can not see any difference, are a little gray mirror glass, but professionals after comparison, can see the different effects. Low-E glass, also known as low-e glass, is a film product composed of multiple layers of metal or other compounds coated on the surface of glass. It mainly plays the function of heat insulation and sun protection, but does not affect the indoor lighting, the light transmittance can reach about 80%, and the appearance is more transparent and clear when viewed outdoors, which ensures the good lighting of the building, and at the same time, it also achieves private space.
Coated glass is coated with a layer of metal film on the inner layer of glass, just like wearing a layer of clothes on the surface of doors and windows, sun room, to achieve the purpose of sun protection and heat insulation, this coating to change the optical properties of the glass, also known as heat reflection glass coated glass, mainly plays a role in heat insulation and reflection of sunlight ultraviolet glass.
In summer, the load on the air conditioner can be reduced; In winter, due to the absorption of infrared light, its own temperature rises, so that it can resist the cold outside, and can also achieve the effect of energy saving. Because the heat-absorbing glass is colored glass, the decorative effect is also obvious while saving energy.
This glass has good thermal insulation properties. Under the condition of ensuring soft indoor lighting, it can effectively shield the solar radiation energy entering the room. It can avoid the heating effect and save the energy consumption of indoor cooling and air conditioning. And it has unidirectional perspective, and the coating layer of sunlight control coated glass is also called single-lens reflex glass.
No matter what kind of glass it is, it has the function of sun protection and heat insulation, and it is suitable for the top glass of the sun room, and the doors and windows with large lighting area on the façade can achieve the function of energy saving and ultraviolet protection
It is generally used for roof terraces, sunshine ceiling glass, floor-to-ceiling windows, and electric skylights.
